I feel sorry for Texans. They wish they were Louisianans so bad

and it actually is a pretty good time to be had

I mean yeah. Dressing up as a cowboy goes back to early childhood and the vast majority of children never step foot on a ranch. It's expected that you'll dress up in cowboy gear just like Mardi Gras expects you'll wear a costume. Most people that dress up for Mardi Gras never get on a float. Are they imposters too?

Houstonians pretend to be cowboys at the rodeo, New Orleans pretend to have old money during mardi gras
it is just an excuse to gather outside in mass before it gets really hot
This is probably the most measured and accurate analysis of both.

True cowboys frequent message boards. Everyone knows that.

You must have misunderstood my post.. the rodeo is fun...all the people playing dress up like cowboys and cowgirls is cringe.

Real cowboys also say cringe.

the sound sucks at the rodeo.
The cookoff is fun if you have access to tents, otherwise it isn't worth going.
